Meditation and Kabbalah by Aryeh Kaplan A classic exploration of the meditative traditions of Jewish mysticism. In Meditation and Kabbalah, Rabbi Aryeh Kaplan traces the development of Jewish meditation from the early mystics and the Hekhalot tradition through Abraham Abulafia, the Kabbalists of Safed, Rabbi Isaac Luria — the Ari — the Baal Shem Tov, and Rabbi Nachman of Breslov. Drawing extensively on original Kabbalistic sources, Kaplan explains a wide range of contemplative methods, including meditation on Hebrew letters and Divine Names, visualization, Kavanot, Yichudim, spiritual ascent, Hitbodedut, and the states of consciousness described by the great masters of Kabbalah. The book combines historical study with unusually detailed descriptions of practices that were often preserved only in rare manuscripts and specialized Kabbalistic works.
